Implementing & Integrating Penn State's ArchivesSpace Public User Interface
Alexandra deGraffenreid and Kevin Clair, Pennsylvania State University

Recording Available 

Slides Available

In Fall 2021, the Eberly Family Special Collections Library at Penn State University launched its ArchivesSpace Public User Interface (PUI). For six months this site worked alongside the older finding aids website due to the challenges of integrating systems and to smooth the transition for researchers and staff. This presentation will discuss the Collection Services Team’s process of preparing ArchivesSpace for public access and launching the site. Lexy deGraffenreid will discuss finding aid data cleanup, and how Penn State staff used a 2020 finding aids audit as well as legacy finding aid statuses to prioritize updating legacy finding aids data. She will also discuss working with a graduate student assistant to perform data cleanup work by quickly updating standardized language to conform with current practices. Kevin Clair will discuss ArchivesSpace integrations and collaborating with University Libraries Strategic Technologies to personalize the public site. He will also discuss the challenges of integrating Aeon to replicate requesting functionality from the former site, to assist the Research Services Team in efficiently managing requests. In addition, Kevin will discuss integrating ArchivesSpace with Penn State’s CONTENTdm repository to display thumbnail images of digitized records in ArchivesSpace, facilitating digital preservation guidelines while more effectively promoting Penn State’s digital collections. Attendees will learn about the challenges and opportunities of integrating ArchivesSpace with other systems as well as conducting large-scale data cleanup of Resource records.

Duct tape integration: developing an automated copy order fulfillment workflow with ArchivesSpace, Preservica, and Aeon
Alicia Detelich Boersig, Yale University Library

Slides Available

This presentation will describe a recent Yale University Library - Manuscripts and Archives project to develop an automated copy order fulfillment workflow for already-digitized materials. The workflow was developed mid-pandemic to cope with increased reprographics requests, and relies on queries and scripts which connect several systems. Topics will include using the ArchivesSpace API to ingest links to digital content, leveraging the ArchivesSpace reports module to identify digitally-available materials, and the development of a set of scripts which combine data from ArchivesSpace and Google Sheets to download files from Preservica, share them via Box, and send the shared links to patrons via Aeon.
